The Furby Boom (stylized as Furby BOOM!) is the updated version of the Furby 2012. They arrived in 2013 with the slogan "A new generation is hatching". These Furbys could connect to their own app.
Later, a revamped Furby Boom! Crystal Series was released in 2014. Furblings based on Furby Booms were released in late 2013. Furblings based on the Crystal series were released in 2015.
A Wookie Furby based on Star Wars called Furbacca was also released based on this design. It had a separate app.

Appearance
Furby Boom
Furby Booms are round and fluffy. They have opaque plastic ears with a shaped hole. Each one has a tail that can be pulled. The jagged faceplate surrounds the eyes, and an asymmetrical black light sensor is placed above.
Furby Boom Crystal
Furby Booms from the Crystal series have translucent, crystal-like glittery "polygon art" ears with no holes. Their feet and faceplate are also of this design.
Furbacca
Furbacca the Wookie Furby has the same ears and faceplate as the Furby Boom. It has unique, fluffy fur and wears a bandolier shoulder belt.
History
In early 2013, a trademark was filed by Hasbro registering 2 names: "Furblings" and "Furby Boom". Furby Boom was registered as a "Toy" while Furblings was registered under "Media", leaving some to speculate Furby may be getting a TV show, video game or something of that nature. However, Furblings were registered under "Media" due to the fact that they are virtual pets, while Furby Boom is a full toy.
When a Furby Boom creature is happy, it will lay an egg on an IOS (4.3 or later) or Android (2.3.3 or later) Device (iPod Touch, iPhone, iPad, etc.). The egg then hatches and your Furby boom now has a baby known as a Furbling. Caring for the Furbling is almost identical to playing with a Tamagotchi. It can also play games with Furby Boom and other Furblings.
Up to 50 Furblings can belong to one Furby Boom creature. Each one has a unique style, personality, and color scheme. The Furblings may or may not resemble the color scheme of their parent. Also, the truck drives your Furbling to its room. Furby Boom was marketed to interact with the Furby App on IOS devices and Android devices. However, Hasbro never updated the app to be compatible with operating systems past iOS 10, making it nearly impossible to download.

Personalities
The 2012 furby has 6 personalities.
Tough Personality - Male personality. Furby will be easily irritable. This can be unlocked by overfeeding or rough play (shaking)
Popstar Personality - Female personality. Furby may turn into this personality if it listens to music for an extended period of time. Matches the Funky Furby personality.
Chatterbox Personality - Female personality, somewhat resembles a stereotypical teenage girl. Get this by talking for a long time to Furby.
Princess Personality - Female personality. Furby will act friendly and sing a lot. This personality resembles the Furby Baby from 2005. Get this by repeatedly petting it or tickling it.
Crazy Personality - Comedic funny and male personality. Furby will often have laughing fits over almost anything. Get by shaking and pulling it's tail. It will laugh like crazy.
Default Personality - Ambiguous personality. Loosely resembles 1998 Furby personality, calm and friendly. Only can get it when you put the batteries in for the VERY first time. To get it back, hold it upside down, hold the tongue, then hold the tail for a few seconds. Instead of flashing eyes, it will reboot.
